The Coalition to Remember the 1906 Atlanta Race Riot was conceptualized by two organizations: Southern Truth and Reconciliation: The Road to Justice for Human Rights Violations (S.T.A.R) and the Martin Luther King, Jr. Historic Site. They are the Sponsoring Organizations. Our mission is to remember the tragic race riot that occurred in Atlanta September 22-25, 1906. We will work to create public awareness of the riot and its legacy, facilitate open and ongoing dialogue amongst diverse communities, and inspire positive systemic change in Atlanta's racial relations.
